18 T II E REFLECTOR ( lass of FRESHMEN CLASS ROLL Ruth Rhode, President. John Black Caroline Harrington, Vice-President Marjorie Young Joe Washut, Secretary-Treasurer Rose Washut Virginia Grayson Alviene Leis Nadia Saigent Ruby Bowman On the sixth day of September, 1926, the Freshman class entered the new country called High School. There were eight of us in the class at the beginning of the year. However, our ranks soon began to change; after the first week of school. Rose Washut entered and later in the year, Marjorie Young and Caroline Harrington. Ruby Bowman and Alviene Leis left the Freshman class during the second semester. Our class has also been well represented in all kinds of school activities during the year. Two boys in the Freshman class were members of the Boys’ Basket ball team, and three in the Girls’ Basket ball team were of our clafes. The Freshman class gave the first class party and also took an active part in the Christmas program, in the songs, in the Armistice Day program, and in getting up material for the annual. We feel that we are thoroughly integrated in the High School student body and look forward to observing the behavior of next year’s “freshies” and teaching them to follow in our footsteps.
